PATTAYA – Recently [PattayaDailyNews]; Mr.Chen Lei aged 43 and Mr.Xu Guangming aged 45 from China notified the police officers that they were threatened by a bag vendor who then made them pay 12,000 baht for a bag.

On January 14th at 18.00 pm, Pol.Col.Suktad Pumpanmuang- superintendent of Pattaya police station- ordered officers to arrest Mr.Apicha Yenphukao aged 45 who was the vendor and the suspect on this case.

Rubbish! You can not lodge a Claim over a Threat on your Travel Insurance or lodge a Claim without a police written report?I believe the two Chinese men. FFS who would pay this amount for plastic wallets, and the "honest" Vendor just happened to accept that amount of Money.
